You are not alone in this journey! One day we shall find ourself! Over and over we are told!
oh, now you have plunged deep under a light-hearted screen, now I know to read aware of a gravity beneath the wit---billions of stars and again a fav
Susan, thank you for visiting this old poem of mine. I'm glad you liked it.
Beautiful imagination with spiritual imagery. Existence is a mystery. Excellent
i COMMENTED A YEAR (nearly) AGO. Have you perceived your yet? bri : )
intriguing, fine rhymes, and amusing. I vote for you being a VAMPIRE. ;)))))))
First, thanks for visiting my poem... Mirror only can reflect your physical but the identity is not appeared, is there any mirror we can see our soul?
A marvelous crafted poem Kim, for me this poem speaks of the nature of identity the fluidity of self. Inspirational picture! ,
well, Kim, at least i got to view a photo of you here today. I read and commented years ago. I hope you are well. i was able to sign in, but not much more, here today.
Wow. I love your poem here, and the picture that accompanies it; so intriguing and beautifully mysterious. Brilliant work, on all fronts.
Beautifully penned sir. The train if thought on a ride just with the mirror so cool in vision but provoking in nature still I long to know who I am till I finally view my toe that looks so beautiful in you.
Delightful and witty with this persistent, menacing undertone, something that sounds a bit like " Come on, dig a little deeper, don't you want to know what I'm really saying? "
I like this poem, to me it is of finding yourself when you cannot see how to, and of self worth and telling yourself you must go on. Great work! ! !
Thanks to all who have commented so far! Marilyn, in answer to your question, it was the picture that inspired the poem. And I do have a Facebook account but rarely use it, so I don't even know how to find you, but if you will find me and send me a friend request, I will accept it.
Enjoyed the poem. If mirror doesn't answer may be our dreams will have some clues!
